I am a wife and the mother of two amazing boys. I am also a full-time middle school special education teacher.

I have lost over 120 lbs. in the past (in my 20s), and kept most of it off until I got pregnant. I put on a lot of weight during both pregnancies, and have struggled to balance a healthy lifestyle (eating right, cooking, exercising) with being a mom and working more than full-time.

My dream is to be in great health again. My life is different now than it ...

I am a wife and the mother of two amazing boys. I am also a full-time middle school special education teacher.

I have lost over 120 lbs. in the past (in my 20s), and kept most of it off until I got pregnant. I put on a lot of weight during both pregnancies, and have struggled to balance a healthy lifestyle (eating right, cooking, exercising) with being a mom and working more than full-time.

My dream is to be in great health again. My life is different now than it was when I lost weight the first time. Although I was successful in the past, I am finding that this is a new adventure filled with unknown obstacles. I am positive I can reach my goals, but the tools I use this time need to be different to accomodate my new life.
